Lynette Gaymon = African-American

“..groups of students had discussed attacking her.”

Need one speculate?

Philly blast to the past, when Asian students were brutally assaulted:

“.. As they turned to leave, a (black) mob pummeled them with fists and kicks. The security guard had disappeared..”

What did her parents expect? The school lists itself as a progressive urban school and a course in African American “history” is required for graduation but no course in American history is required. I would tell her parents to quit being stupid and find a proper school.

Somehow I doubt that this "history" class will talk about guys like George Washington Carver and Booker T. Washington.

This is why there are no signs or stickers around. If you put one on your car, it will get destroyed. If you had one on your lawn your house will probably be burned down.

This is not new. I had to deal with bullying and harassment from ateacher and some classmates in 1992, just for saying I thought abortion was wrong, as it was dismemberment of a baby. The level of rage I encountered shocked me.

Nothing new, grew up in the 70’s liberal lesbo NOW teacher, always putting you down if you disagreed with her. Ms. Tucker, I hate to hear MS.

“Philadelphia, the city of brotherly love?”

A bit like Obama, who won the Peace Prize, having a “kill list”. WTF?

Lynette Gaymon, her geometry teacher,

Make her take a month of anti-bullying seminars and write an essay on how not to bully one of your students.

Found no reference to a teacher’s name, and here is their website staff listing.

It appears the Math teachers are men. Wonder if she is a substitute?

And only 2 members of the published staff are addressed as MS.

Lynette Gaymon is the name of the teacher per this article and other sources. Google will provide you the other info that you asked for as we can apparently no longer post contact information on FR.

I did not know about the contact info change. Could understand that.

But the teacher needed to be “identified” and connected with her actions.

Thanks

“Gaymon”

Is that a for real last name?

I wondered about that, too. According to Google, she’s the only woman named “Gaymon” in Pennsylvania.
